What does the app look like?
Here's a walkthrough of some of Power Pong app's features (v. 1.0.1)
Here's what we are doing:
• We navigate from the home screen to the Drills page.
• We tap the plus icon in the bottom right-hand corner to create a new drill. This automatically takes us to the new drill’s page.
• We move the first ball (Ball 1) to the far side of the table to set up a service.
• We change the speed/spin of Ball 1. Note the trajectory and ball color are automatically changing as we adjust these values, with the ball’s color representing its spin. This is a special feature of Power Pong Omega. There's no need to guess what trajectory will work as it is computed for you automatically.
• We tap on the table to deselect Ball 1.
• we add a new ball (Ball 2) to this drill by tapping Add Ball.
• We move Ball 2 towards the left side of the table near the end line.
• We adjust the speed/spin of Ball 2.
• We manually adjust the trajectory of Ball 2 by using the trajectory slider. When the trajectory is manually modified, the slider will turn green.
• We deselect Ball 2 and set the duration for this drill to 40 seconds.
• We toggle the Mirror setting twice to visually demonstrate its effect on the drill.
• We toggle the Random setting twice to visually demonstrate its effect on the drill.
• We select the ball order icons on the left side of the screen by pressing and holding them. We drag the icons around to demonstrate reordering the balls in the drill.
• We rename the drill to “Serve and Open”.
• We navigate to the Drill Properties page and set up a few tags for the drill.
• We navigate back to the drill and tap the Save icon in the header bar to save the drill.
• We navigate back to the Drills page and demonstrate searching for the drill. We can search by either tag or drill name is supported.
